Adrenocortical suppression in highland chick embryos is restored during incubation at sea level
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2011)Abstract. By combining the chick embryo model with incubation at high altitude, this study tested the hypothesis that development at high altitude is related to a fetal origin of adrenocortical but not adrenomedullary ... -
Aymara children are protected from high-altitude-induced pulmonary hypertension
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2005-02-22)Pulmonary hypertension is a hallmark of the adaptation to ambient lack of oxygen. This assumption is also thought to hold true for high-altitude native children, since invasive studies showed elevated pulmonary-artery pressure ... -
Chronic mountain sickness and cor pulmonale La Paz-Bolivia (3,600-4,100 m)
(Life on the Qinghai Tibetan plateau, 2007)Summary. Among the majority of inhabitants of La Paz-Bolivia (3,200-4,100 m.), the mild elevation seen in pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) has no clinical significance and is reversible on descent to lower altitude or with ... -
Disfunción ventricular derecha en altitud. Estudio preliminar descriptivo
(Neumol Cir Torax, 2013-01) -
Exaggerated exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension causes lung water accumulation and right ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2010-08-08) -
Exaggerated pulmonary hypertension during mild exercise in chronic mountain sickness
(CHEST, 2010-02)Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is an important public health problem and is characterized by exaggerated hypoxemia, erythrocytosis, and pulmonary hypertension. While pulmonary hypertension is a leading cause ... -
Excessive polycythemia occurs in young high-altitude (3600 M) residents in the absence of lung disease
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2002-04-18)Objective: Chronic Mountain Sickness occurs in , 8% of the La Paz population. We asked whether its primary diagnostic sign, excessive polycythemia (EP), occurred in youngeraged persons without lung disease. Methods: ... -
Exercise induces rapid interstitial lung water accumulation in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(CHEST, 2012-04-04)Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is a major public health problem in mountainous regions of the world. In its more advanced stages, exercise intolerance is often found, but the underlying mechanism is not ... -
Fútbol en la altura en Bolivia
(Cuadernos del Hospital de Clínicas, 2009)RESUMEN. El presente trabajo se realizó en razón del tercer veto emitido por la FIFA, de jugar partidos eliminatorios para Copas Mundiales de Fútbol en alturas por encima de los 2500 m. Los objetivos del estudio se basaron ... -
High altitude hypoxia and blood pressure dysregulation in adult chickens
(Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, 2013)Although it is accepted that impaired placental perfusion in complicated pregnancy can slow fetal growth and programme an increased risk of cardiovascular dysfunction at adulthood, the relative contribution of reductions ... -
High-altitude hypoxia and echocardiographic indices of pulmonary hypertension in male and female chickens at adulthood
(Circulation Journal, 2014-06)Background: By combining the chick embryo model with incubation at high altitude (HA), the effects of chronic hypoxia on fetal growth, fetal cardiac and aortic wall remodeling and systemic arterial blood pressure at adulthood ... -
Increasing respiratory dead space improves sleep disordered breathing and hypoxemia in patients with chronic mountain sickness
(The FASEB Journal, 2011-04-25) -
Offspring of preeclamptic mothers are predisposed to hypoxic pulmonary hypertension
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2005-02-22)Adverse events in utero may predispose to cardiovascular disease in adulthood. In preeclampsia, the diseased placenta releases circulating vasculotoxic factors that cause maternal endothelial dysfunction. These factors ... -
Perinatal origins of chronic mountain sickness : the role of perinatal hypoxia in the development of CMS
(Meeting VII Congress World Medicine and Physiology High Altitude, 2011) -
Protective effect of female sex hormones against pulmonary hypertension in Bolivian high altitude natives
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2003-02-19)There is abundant evidence that female sex hormones have protective effects in the systemic circulation in both animals and humans, but little is known regarding their role in the regulation of the pulmonary circulation. ... -
Pulmonary and systemic vascular dysfunction in young offspring of mothers with preeclampsia
(Circulation, 2010-07-19)Background—Adverse events in utero may predispose to cardiovascular disease in adulthood. The underlying mechanisms are unknown. During preeclampsia, vasculotoxic factors are released into the maternal circulation by the ... -
Pulmonary-artery pressure and exhaled nitric oxide in Bolivian and caucasian high altitude dwellers
(High Altitude Medicine & Biology, 2008)Abstract. There is evidence that high altitude populations may be better protected from hypoxic pulmonary hypertension than low altitude natives, but the underlying mechanism is incompletely understood. In Tibetans, ... -
Respiratory nitric oxide and pulmonary artery pressure in children of aymara and european ancestry at high altitude*
(CHEST, 2008-11-07)Invasive studies suggest that healthy children living at high altitude display pulmonary hypertension, but the data to support this assumption are sparse. Nitric oxide (NO) synthesized by the respiratory epithelium regulates ... -
Response to letters regarding article, "Pulmonary and systemic vascular dysfunction in young offspring of mothers with preeclampsia"
(Circulation, 2011)We thank Lazdam et al and Yuan et al for their interesting comments on our study.1 Lazdam et al point out that in our study, birth weight in offspring of mothers with preeclampsia was significantly lower than in controls, ... -
RV contractility and exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension in chronic mountain sickness : a stress echocardiographic and tissue doppler imaging study
(ELSEVIER, 2013-12)Objectives. The aim of this study was to evaluate right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular function and pulmonary circulation in chronic mountain sickness (CMS) patients with rest and stress echocardiography compared ...
